A retired American who lived in Penang, Malaysia, and now has returned to the US shares his thoughts, views and opinions on a variety of subjects ranging from the ridiculous to the controversial. The contents are only limited by his imagination.

Terms, such as those in the above title, are some of the demeaning descriptions used by the Tea Party morons in reference to poor people, including the unemployed, the handicapped, minorities and seniors. The hateful rhetoric flowing from Teabaggers is in reaction to the fact that these people receive welfare, food stamps, unemployment and other government benefits. Republican supporters of the wealthy fire up these Tea Party morons telling them that these kinds of people are taking money away from them with their entitlements. So the morons vote for these scumbag Republicans, not realizing that their hard earned benefits will be taken away from them in favor of giving more to the wealthy 1%.

Teabaggers don't realize that entitlements include social security benefits for retirees, the blind, the handicapped, government pensions, unemployment benefits and other benefits that we all pay through our taxes and some day may be needed by them. All Americans complain about how high our taxes are, but compared to other developed countries of the world ours is the lowest. These idiots also don't realize that the new congressmen they put into office to end these entitlements are millionaires. According to OpenSecrets.Org "the median net worth of the 94 incoming law makers at the end of 2011 was $1,066,515", while the "median net worth of the average American household is $66,740" according to the US Census. I guess the Teabaggers see this as peer representation in Congress! Or maybe they think these millions will trickle down to them!

I can go on and on about how the wealthy GOP take advantage of the ignorant and uneducated members of the Tea Party, but that would be preaching to the choir.One can only hope that they will come to their senses before their Republican allies destroy them and all other members of the middle class.

Here are a couple amusing things I found on Facebook, thanks to Being Liberal.

If there is anything that upsets me more than the ignorant morons in the Tea Party or racist, bigoted Republicans, if is dealing with new technology. I try to keep up with technology the best I can, but many times I get frustrated using my iPhone, iPad and my computer. I recently downloaded the latest operating system for my iPhone, iOS7 and didn't really know what features I had. Then I read a new website started my someone very close to me.

One of the biggest problems I have, and I am sure others of my age also have, is reading the small text on the iPhone and other devices. I went to this new website KSimplify and found a simple resolution to my problem and a couple of others. I feel better about new technology now, but I still deal with the stupidity of the Tea Party.

If you want some answers to you tech problems try reading this new blog, KSimplify. I am sure Kevin will answer any questions you may have. Good luck.

It is not news that Teabagger Republicans are an ignorant bunch of bigots and racists, but it never ceases to amaze me at just how damn ignorant and hateful they are. We see every day how much they hate Obama, basically because he is Black and a Democrat, and how they cannot given him credit for anything. They condemn everything he does, regardless of whether or not it helps people or the country.

Recently it was announced that Obama would visit Southeast Asia, which would include Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. It was barely made public before the morons of the Tea Party were attacking Obama for visiting his "Muslim brothers", as the ignoramuses of the Tea Party refer to people other than Christians. Now most intelligent people who know anything about the countries Obama will visit know that Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia are predominantly Muslim countries and the Philippines are predominantly Roman Catholic Christians. The Teabaggers, on the other hand, I am sure could not locate any of these countries on a map and would not know the facts on religion. But this doesn't stop them from attacking Obama for visiting the Muslim countries, while not mentioning he is visiting the largest Catholic country in Asia. I think one explanation for this might be that many, if not most, Tea Party members don't think Catholics are Christians. I knew one Teabagger who refused to believe Catholics were Christian because his pastor told him so!

What I can't fathom is how the fact that radical Muslims all over the world hate Obama and would wish nothing more than to kill him over his support of Israel and his war on terrorism, has escaped the Tea Party as they insist he is a Muslim and is supporting Muslim terrorists! Perhaps their views of the world are based on Fox News, rather than on reality! And for those Tea Party supporters who may have strayed off course and are reading this. No Obama has not travelled more than any other president. That honor goes to his predecessor Bush, by about a 2 to 1 margin.

I have been away for a while and just returned. Even with my
prolonged jet lag I had to write this post in remembrance of all of those who died on September 11, 2001. Let us never forget those who died, including all of those who died trying to save others. The actions of a few hate filled terrorists changed the lives of us all, but we have risen above their hate and violence and have become stronger.
